#5925: Add inline version of newArray# ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: tibbe | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.6.2 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.4.1 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: 4258 | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by tibbe): My use case looks something like: {{{ f c = case c of C1 -> newArray# <known small size> C2 -> newArray# <unknown small size> }}} Simon M, will the unknown small size case work in the implementation you suggest (i.e. spot the known case and hoist its heap check to the top of `f`)? For the known case you say I should "compile those directly", but I have no idea what that actually means. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5925#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
